Little vegan heaven

Vegan restaurant with friendly staff. Many different dishes like Burger, Wraps, Indian Thali Plates, Lasagna...
We ate wraps and Thali. Both was delicious and enough to feel more than full. Normally they have a daily special for a very good price.

Pros: good variety of dishes, good prices, coloful resta

Cons: none

Good vegan food

The menu is extensive, with plates ranging from indian/nepalese dishes, to burgers and tapas.
However, the dessert menu is something they could improve, as it had very simple and uninteresting things.

I had the tofu/oyster mushroom dish, which was good; but nothing memorable. Portions were fair to the price, and ingredients.

The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was pleasant, but a bit cold.

In general, I liked it; but next time I'm in Barcelona it won't be my first choice.

Very delicious

Wunderbares Restaurant, viele Speisen zur Auswahl von Tapas über viele Asiatische (/nepalesische) Gerichte bis hin zu Burgern. Smoothies, Säfte, Milchshakes....
Ein traum für Veganer. Der Besitzer beider lokale hier in Barcelona kommt ursprünglich aus Nepal, und hat sich am Ende des Besuchs nach unser Zufriedenheit erkundigt und sich mit uns unterhalten.

Einen Punkt Abzug gibt es für das Trockene Brot der Burger(wahrscheinlich Glutenfrei), wirkt trocken, zerbzicht schnell und schmeckt nicht wirklich. Alle anderen Gerichte während unserer 2Besuche waren köstlich sowie auch die vielen Säfte.

Great smoothies

On a friends trip to Barcelona we stopped in for lunch and I got a veggie burger as well as the potatoes. Everything was great, and my non veg friends loved their smoothies!

Nice curry place

Serves mainly Indian-style food, though that's probably a misnomer as they take their inspiration from Nepal. Good and inexpensive food, I had a thali, juice smoothie and coffee for less than 15 euros.

Pros: Inexpensive, lots of vegan food, alternate hippy vibe

Cons: Less choice if you don't like spicy food

Ok for the price

I am familiar with their first restaurant, and this has basically the same concept and same menu. The food was similar in taste and quality, too. It is ok to eat, there is not really anything wrong with it, and sometimes a specific dish comes out quite good. But for most of the food i tasted there, there is always sth a bit wrong - the dough of the samosa, or the overcooked filling of it. Same goes for much of the other food i tried. But then, at 9,25, for the menu, incl. water, bread and dessert, what more can one want?

It reminds me of mensa at university type of food, ok if you are hungry, and if you need a lot of food, then for sure a good choice.

The juices are a sure bet.

For the rest it is busy, noisy, and service quite fast.

had a weird experience

I ordered off the raw food part of the menu and first got this "paste" dish that I knew very little about. It was a humongous bowl of pink vegetable paste and not much else in it. Maybe it was because I hadn't eaten other food yet, but it was definitely not the right dish to start my day. It tasted a bit garlicky as well - I couldn't do it! I wanted to move onto the zucchini noodles ASAP but my palette had already been sort of tainted by gulping down gigantic spoonfuls of vegetable paste. The zucchini noodles felt like I was squeezing even more garlicky liquid out of hard masses of noodles. I took it to go. I'm sure this place has good food but I believe I just made poor decisions for what to order and when. It was also extremely loud in there! But cool decor.

ESSENTIAL

I love going to this place —the food is so good, with lots of spices and herbs, and it's all vegan! The price is very economic, so you can go there at least once per week :P

Pros: Excellent food, Big portions, Quick serving

Cons: Lack of natural light

ok food but became sick

The food was ok, but after a while I got sick. Not even sure if it was gluten (im allergic) or just bad food, but I had the buckwheat noodles and they confermed that it was glutenfree.
It's a bit noisy and the tables is to close.
The only thing that gets an extra star is the milkshakes and the staff.

Food ok but too noisy

Would give the food 3 1/2 stars. What we had was average in taste.Hummus is not really tasty. Fresh juice was good. Fair prices. Good for people who work or study close by but nothing special for a tourist

Pros: price, menu of the day

Cons: noisy

quite a deception

The place is very noisy and the waiters were unhelpful. The food is not the best. Hummus wasn't tasty and the Thali formula was ok but not amazing. I had a heavy afternoon after this dish. The dessert was the best: we tried Apple crumble and it was tasty, sweet and crunchy.

Pros: cheap

Cons: noisy, unfriendly staff, not elegant either cool. it looks like an awful ba

Meal of the day

Restaurant has a really cool look, bright and vibrant. We choose the meal of the day so three course for the price of €8.50. We both has gazpacho for starter which was cold however was nice enough. Main course was Thai and it was huge, rice, three different curries and poppadoms. I had the crrot cake for dessert which was yum. I had the ron con lemonade with my food which was also great. The waiters were good as the place wasnt too busy they seemed attentive enough.

Pros: meals were huge and filling

Good food, not great with Thalis

The food was good. The burger was delicious. Tapas were good but the staff could have showed less of a cold shoulder. Overall not a bad place to go to once in Barcelona if you're a vegan.

good food, bad service

Food is great, but only for those who like well-seasoned food. The dishes come super cute.
The waiters are unattentive and unprofessional

Good food, good price

The set meal deal is really good value for money. It changes daily apparently but today I had a little bread basket and hummus & carrots as a starter, a veg curry for mains and an apple crumble desert. With a bottle of water included it all came to 8.50euro.

Being this close to the town centre is a great price and the food was really tasty!

Cons: none really.

Good quality-price

Having a lunch and dinner 8,50€ menu is very attractive. Food is not bad, though waiters could be kinder :)

A much needed find!

Traveling on business with a group of (my beloved) male coworkers who enjoy endless beer and meat fare, I was excited to escape and find this on the way to our hotel! I had a delicious veggie burger over rice with peanut sauce. The staff spoke English and was very patient while I was trying to find the best choice. Even though it was cold after my 30 minute walk home, I didn't even care because it was so delicious! I hope to find my way here again tomorrow!

Pros: Menu and staff: English!, Huge menu , Lovely interior

Cons: Nada.

No volveré

Es el único restaurante vegano-vegetariano que no repetiría. La calidad de los productos me pareció deficiente. Aunque es un restaurante económico, no me pareció que hicieran una comida buena y sabrosa.

El servicio tampoco nos gustó. Pedimos recomendación y no supieron decirnos qué plato escoger ni siquiera conocían cómo se cocinaban o presentaban algunos platos. Al servir la comida metían los dedos dentro del plato tocando la comida.

Pros: Barato

Cons: Calidad baja , Camareros poco preparados
